THE INCREASING DEMANDS OF
. A GROWING INTELLIGENCE.
Intellectual Elevation on Stills.

"F'irst-class tickets for three p rang
out above the din of the crowd, in
h~yperbolic meditation and struck the
ear Of the agent, as the digniied col
ored gentleman planked down the
cash with an air of "plenty more be-
hind" Followed by two "young
lady friends" who were fresh from
the confines Of college life, they pro-
ceeded to appropriate three seats in the
>car-the only irst-class a in the
train. Passengers crowded into the
car ;\quite a number Of white ladies,
whose great difficulty to procure seats
evoked the remark from n of the
colored damsels: GLOW very for
tunate we were to procure such COM
Portable seats !" And then began a
clatter of tongue, and flow of "hifalu-
tin language hat defied the roar OF
the train and every conception of pro-
priety and decency, to the inexpressi-
BILE disgust Of all the passengers-and
it rolled on in one unbroken strain for
one hundred miles. Altitudinous in
tellectuality on a periodical swell,
must needs have a clear track and full
elbow room-hence the ordinary seat
in frst-class cars is entirely too small
to accommodate more than one "first-
class colored graduate.

THE LEISURE SEASON TO BE
THE BUSIEST OF ALL.

Farmers v worked harder.
Never were they so intent on relieving
themselves Of the>burdens which have
we'll nigh axhauetedthem. They are
with their plows in the field. They
are not to be seen in the towns or at
public gatherings. But they are plow-
ing and thinking and devising plans
for a good time and for an onward
movement. Almost every mail brings
a kind invitation to attend a "Farmers
Dinner and Picnic" when the crops
care laid by" And now comes Ca
barrus with a call for a Farmers In
stitute on the 18th of August; David
son for n on the 18th of August;
Orange for one on the 10Th of July;
and Durham the time not yet fixed.
We beg to remind our good friends
that the Inter-States Convention be-
gins in Atlanta on the 10th of August
and just such as are foremost in sup
porting thees Institutes are the men
who are expected and who r needed
in that Convention. We suggest that
a change of only a few days will make
little difference in holding our Insti-
tute, and that the time may be so
arranged as not to conflict with that
convention. Think of it.

THE WAY TENNESSEE SPENDS
THE MONEY.

Hon. B. M. 1Iord, Commissioner of
Agriculture for Tennessee, seems to
be working to make the department
pay the farmers Of that State. He has
issued a circular in which he calls on
the farmers of the State to organize
by counties and to hold local fairs an
nually. He proposes as an induce
ment, to pay premiums to the exhibit
ors out of the funds of the depart
ment.

THE INTER-STATES CONVEN-
.W TON. (cO

1t is gratifying to note the deep
interest with which prominent farmers
all over our State are looking to the
Inter-States Convention at Atlanta in
August. AndA is equally gratifying
to note the interest they manifest in
the important matter of representa-
ton. We published a strong and
able letter from a Forsyth correspon-
dent last week, giving very clear rea-
sons why our State should send repre-
,sentative farmers to that Convention,
apart from the design of it's projec-
tors, that only such men should be
appointed. And this week we give
another strong letter on the subject,
from Orange. We state again for
the information Of all concerned that
the appointing power, under the plan
of organization is vested in the Gov
ernor and Commissioner of Agricul-
ture. We speak advisedly when we
say that it is the anxious desire Of the
committee that each State should
send its best and strongest men, and
that such questions only will be con
sidered as relate directly to the interests
of the farmers Of the ten cotton
States. These questions have already
been formulated and will be given to
the public as soon as our delegates
sandsthose from our other States are
appointed. The management is ex-
sceedingly anxious to complete the list,
SO that the delegates may be furnished
with the information necessary to the
understanding of the proposed action
0 the body. Eight of the States have

THE WOMEN IN EARNEST.
Tho Question of Licenses Discussed by tn
w. q. T.. u.

At the meeting of the Woman's Chris
tian Temperance Union yesterday, Mrs.
Hartman related the gist Of CONVERSE
ton with Commissioner Webb in which
that gentleman said the Commissioners
had never cancelled n license and would
do nothing in the Brosnan case until
Attorney Riddle gave an opinion as to
the legality of such step. She said
that after the Union had exhausted
every other resource at their disposal
they would appeal to the courts for
redress in the premises. Mrs. Harris
related how her property on Seventh
street had not only had its rental value
diminished by the infringement Of
saloons but that it had been absolutely
destroyed.
In short speech Mrs. LaFetra advo-
Gated hostility to the high license move
ment, which she claimed was in the in
terest of a monopoly of the great evil.
She disclaimed her intention OF choos'
ing the less of the two evils. She did
not believe in choosing either. Mrs.
LaFetra was instructed to wait upon the
Preachers Association to invoke their
aid in making public presentation Of
the unions views on the liquor ques-
ton.
Mrs. Catlin introduced n resolution
calling upon Christian people to refrain
from offering liquor to their guests dur
ing the holiday season. A resolution
commencing the action Of the Citizens
Committee in putting woman on the
School Board was passed.
After the disposal of some minor mat
tiers the meeting adjourned.

THE NEW NAVY.
How the Work on the Cruisers Is Pre-
gressing.

How the Work on the Cruisers Is Pro-
crossing.
Naval Constructor Horner, who is SUI
pervising the work on the cruisers being
built at Crump's shipyards, has been in
Philadelphia several days in consulta-
ton with Navy Department officials. 1t
is inferred from his statements that he
does not think the vessels can be COM
pleted within the contract time. The
contractors have been somewhat unfor-
tunate in the matter of steel. The deliv-
cry of steel is now much more regular
and sufficient quantities are coming in to
keep the workmen busy. There are
1000 men employed on the vessels, and
they are forging ahead with the con-
struction. There seems to be considera-
BILE difficulty in securing steam pipes for
gunboat No. /. If these were obtained
the vessel could soon be put in the
water.
Rear-Admiral Gherardi, who is in com.
mand at the Brooklyn Navy-Yard, has
received orders from the Navy Depart
ment to have the new steel cruiser Chi
cago rigged as soon as possible and her
masts put in place. She will be bark
rugged and will carry nearly 1900
square feet of sail. The Chicago's bat
terry will consist of four eight-inch
breech-loaders, mounted in projecting
turrets, two on each side of the flush
spar deck. On the gun deck there will
be six six-inch breech-loaders and two
five-inch guns in recessed ports. There
will also be six Hotchkiss revolving
cannon, mounted in bullet-proof towers.
The Chicago will probably remain in
the Brooklyn Navy-Yard until early
spring. Her commander, Captain Henry
b. Robson, has been navigation officer
in the navy-yard during the past three
wears,

Some Of the Rcmarkabie Propositions
Made to II.
The fame of the National Museum is
spreading apacc. though some people
seem to have very hazy ideas as to the
nature of that important institution.
And in consequence of the mlsappre-
hension some people seem to labor un-
der that 1t is Dime Museum, some
very strange letters find their way to Pro-
fcssor Goodies desk. One received this
week, addressed TO "Thc National
Museum, Washington. d. Co." was as
follows:
Manager.
DEAR sir--Car you play us some time in Janu-
ary. Respectfully,
Auousrs MoSrALiES.
Address, this week, "world's Museum" Bos-
ton.
1nclosed was the programme Of the
Worlds Museum, located in Boston.
One Of the attractions was:

the Vaudeville Stage,

Thought he Had Been Shot.

Policeman Mcmahon of the First Precinct
noticed man sitting on the curbstone at
the corner of Fifteenth street and Pennsyl-
yania avenue about o'clock last night.
The officer thought he was drunk and called
the patrol wagon. II was then found that
taking him to the station-housc he was re-
moved to the Emergency Hospital. He was
partially dazed, but he stated that his name
was Samuel Brown of Lancaster, n. H., and
he has been in the Providence Hospital since
his arrival here on the 3D. instant until yes
terday, when he got out. He said that some
men tried to rob him in the Monument
grounds and one of them shot him in the
jaw with pistol. He was mistaken about
this, as there was no fracture of the skin.
lie said he could not recognize the man.
The doctors think he got his injuries by fall
ing ON the curbstone.

THE BRoADswORD CONTEST,


The programme continues: "Please
remember that IL is no humbug. II was
first introduced in Germany by the
great king and hero, Gustav H., Adolf
Of Sweden, and later the favorite fight
Of Charles NIL, also renowned in his
tory. Mr.. Auguste Montalicn. exam
ined broadsword fighter from Europe,
is willing to prove the genuincness of
his speciality"
Another letter was received some time
ago from queen of the dime museum
stage, a'ho undoubtedly was also labor
ing under misapprehension. There
can be no doubt that it is from queen
because of the naughty queenliness Of
its tone. 1t is from Cincinnati and says:

week and not d--n cent less.

Mile. Daisy will not be one of the at
fractions at the National Museum this
winter.
The manager of dime museum in
Illinois wrote month or so ago. saying
that he understood that they had a two
headed pig and he would like to make q
date for it, as there had never been one
in his town and he thought it wsuld
take well.
These are the things that keep the
genial people at the National Museum
good-natured.

Hon. Thomas Wilson, curator of an
archaeological department of the National
Museum, is going to send out circulars to
the various museums in this country, asking
of them any information they may have
tending to throw light on the existence of
man In this country during the paleolithic
age. This is an interesting subject, and
doubtless much valuable as well rs inter
